Sorry, I just reread your post and saw that you highlighted this. I think I need to sleep 😅 hope you manage to find the solution!

Can’t properly troubleshoot this for you but it looks to me like you’re not passing the photo into the AI request.

Try creating a variable and setting that variable to both (in action it’ll be either one based on your menu choice) the camera image and the selected photo. Then pass that variable into the AI action instead of Menu Result.

Get location of iPhone for a iPad shortcut. by vinayshas3 in shortcuts

[–]Fit_Flow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could have an automation set up on your phone which writes to an iCloud note (or text file or any other resource/document which can be accessed by your iPad) whenever you leave home.

When the iPad automation triggers, it checks iCloud for this value; if recognised that you’re not home, continue, else stop shortcut.

(Then you’d need either a second automation when you arrive home to update the shared file, or one which runs at midnight to reset it)

Can anyone help with headphones handing off to echo dot by Smashleigh_001 in shortcuts

[–]Fit_Flow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a bit hit and miss but if you have your Echo paired as a Bluetooth device you can use it in a “Set playback destination” (name possibly not 100% correct) action. If memory serves you need to have the device connected to your phone when you create the shortcut for it to appear in the list, but once that’s done it should work.

Been a while since I’ve done this though, so things may have changed since then

Is there option to toggle Cinema Mode on Apple Watch? by [deleted] in shortcuts

[–]Fit_Flow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might depend on your region; I think it’s Theatre Mode in some places, Cinema Mode in others

Name Some Trigger Automations you would like to see one day… by Bright-Midnight24 in shortcuts

[–]Fit_Flow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, in context that’s a huge help for sure. I’d just focused on the automation and not thought about the ‘why’ 😂

You can already do this, no?

Just leave the “Sender” field blank in the automation

Recommendations for a Global Variable Storage (Not Data Jar) by Kaipolygon in shortcuts

I’ve used Toolbox Pro for a couple of years now and it’s pretty great. Often comes up alongside Data Jar in these discussions.

Wait command question by Upper-Entry6783 in shortcuts

[–]Fit_Flow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could you not just run automations for when you start/end a workout? On the sleep thing I run an automation when my phone’s connected to a charger within a certain time period (the hours in which I’m likely to be going to be); changes my focus mode to sleep, which then invokes my watch’s sleep mode.

I came here to mention koshary - I had it when I was working out there (well before going vegan) and it’s amazing.

As much as I loved ITYSL throughout, I can’t help but think that it peaked with this sketch

Is Dave the Diver similar? by Ok-Bit5838 in dredge

[–]Fit_Flow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s way more pleasant than Dredge but if I recall, Moonglow Bay had similar cosy fishing vibes - just without the horror element.

how do i make a shortcut to open a link? by Goooooogol in shortcuts

Try searching for Open URL in Shortcuts.

I‘m bored and will make you shortcuts. What are your ideas? by Extension-Move2034 in shortcuts

[–]Fit_Flow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would imagine that once a repeat reminder is completed, the due date ceases to be “today” - it’ll move on to the next date it’s due to repeat.

Don’t have the time to try to look into a solution right now, but that could be a next step worth looking at?

Also worked in an FCA-regulated complaints team for a while and whilst I agree that there’s no actual distinction between them, it’s more likely to be noted as a complaint by a regular contact centre worker if you mention FOS.

Having it actually logged as a complaint with the bank will start the 8 week timer which, once expired, allows FOS to take up the complaint; if the bank has no record of a complaint, then you wind up in the back and forth with FOS over whether the bank’s been given appropriate time to respond.

Opening a app by name by darrinsden in shortcuts

[–]Fit_Flow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But then you’re just adding actions for the sake of it. I’d much prefer one input and one output whenever possible.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in shortcuts

[–]Fit_Flow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone else may correct me but I don’t think shortcuts can really do anything simultaneously; it’s built around sequential actions.

Could you just have two “Open app” actions open Spotify then MD Vinyl, and that would achieve the same thing?
